EXAMINING The BOOKS.

The Washington Star says: On every
account the proposal to examine the
books of the disbursing officers in all
the departments of the Government, and
Compare balances with Cash, is to be
commended. No private business can
be run successfully except by frequent
comparisons Of this sort. An honest
bookkeeper would not wish it otherwise,
. d dishonest one ought not to be al
lowed the advantage of lax oversight.
In tho Government employ the tempta-
ton TO easy going methods is very strong
JUDGED. Public business is everybody's
business. as the proverb goes. A man
who is naturally inclined to be accom-
modating, and to do favors for asso-
ciates, is under special pressure in q
Government Office, and the fact that he
is doing work for a vast quasi-corpora-
ton instead of for private individual
IL linble to weaken his sense of respor-
sibility. There does not appear to be
any reason for suspecting that large
number of Government disbursers have
been recreant to their trusts, even con-
structively; but, in view of the develop
ments of the last few months, those who
have respected the prophecies most
sorupulously will doubtless be the first
70 welcome an investigation which will
remove from them every shadow of gen.
eral doubt and suspicion.

HENRY WArrERsoS lays the whole
 blame or the causes Of the political
 solidity of the south, upon the sact,on-
 sllsm ot the northern peopIe- wbo Leo,
 alive the memories of the war and en-
 courage the negro element in asserting
 ineir political and social rights Hanrv evidently believes the southern people
 are the only ones who have the right to indulge Tn historical remlniscepees. tbst they are endowed with divine riobt to deify treason and to clothe if with s mantle ot virtue, and to oppress a class or people who are privileged to enioy tLe same rights and prerogatIves as tbem- selves. They have reuved B new in terest Tn the memories of the vEr lv tbe erection of monuments to many of its chief actors. ard by eulogiziuy their treasonable acts. They shIl slorify in the rehellious utte-snces of the uprs. pentsnt arch-traitor, Jeff Davis. apd e1u!t over the fact that his life IS sill spAIeu while many or his prominent opponents have been called hence 10 theIr finsl account They call it "pro- tecting their rights" when they deny the entranchised negro the right to cast his ballot and kill him If he exercises I. in opposition to their wishes. Ifunlimited dulgence In all these little pleasant rles, Hnd passive indifference to them by the people of the north, are necessary to the dissolution of the political cohe- sion of the southern states, it is best that thelr solidIfication shall await the dls- alchemy of time to evolve a rational, common sense view of public matters. Henry is mistaken in charging the north alone with keeping alive the war memories and intervening them in political. affairs; the south IS doing far more in this respect. and If it wants to bury the evils of IS past in the grave of oblivion, It should show its good faith by its works, and submit to the issues that it brought.

ALTHOUGH the interstate commerce
 law has been in operation only few
 days, its principal feature has been
 found impractical, and ID several no.
 table instances the discretionary power
 of the commissioner has been eIer-
 cised in suspending 1t. There is hard
 ly another clause in the whole law aside
 from section four, relating to the long
 and short haul discrimination, that IS considered either objectionable by the railroad managers or particularly benefi- cisl to the public, and when this vital
 clause is suspended entirely, as 1t surely
 will be, the whole act may as we'll at once pass on to its manifest destiny of innocuous desuetude. It IS safe, even
 with the brief experiment already made, to announce that the intricate problem of just and equitable public control of interstate commerce, IS not solved by the new law. It possibly contains some of the elements of proper solution, but its general effect Is of magnitude !Oo gigantic for the mind to grasp at one effort. and the combined wlsdOm of our national statesmen will be still further taxed in the erection of a less objection able and more oomplsse law. No one questions the necessity for some ieEis- IatIve restraint to check the graspiUg of powerful corporations, bus the contrary effect i= pEoduced in the new law, and the railroads themselves are given n greater profit while the peo- pie must pay for it. l. other words, the theory IS right, bu: the practice ls Mrnnr

THERE IS some talk of stIll further re- ducing the police force of this city. by dispensing with the services of an officer in the vicinity of the depot. We trust this will not crystslize into tangible shape, for several very good reasons, the prin ;iple one Of which IS the indis- putable necessity for a police officer m the neichborhood of the depot. l. IS here that tramps and hard characters usually resort, and It IS the most favor- able opportunity to spot them and in- spire in them a wholesome fear of the law. The trains now arrive and depart in the night and there IS necessarily more or less danger attending the belat- ed pedestrian either going to or coming from the train, particularly if no officer is at hand. The city has but three po- lice officers and their services are about the only benefit. the people derive from A city government, and to impair the ef- ficiency of the force at this time would be unEise and disastrous.

 herd enough grssshoppers and grub worms to last until the crop of mesquite beans ripened, and word was sent on to Washington that they were Tn danger Of starving, the telegraph was promptly used to order relief by the subsistence department Of the military at Prescott, and the lordly sons of the forest were supplied all the good food the commis- sary department contained. When the unfortunate drouth came like terri ble calamity upon the industrious people of portions of Texas, and they were in danger of starving, while the philanthropical portion of the public contributed to their present necessities, the little aid offered by Congress to place them Tn condition to produce something for themselves, WAS vetoed by the president, And yet our fellow citi- zens are heels over head Tn love with tbe Goddess of Liberty, even while real

A road following the route suggested would open up one of the best agricultural districts Tn the world, forming one continuous garden of semi-tropicsl possibilities along the whole route. capable Of supporting an immense population. The value of such an enterprise to Arizona is incalculable, and it would also prove exceedingly re- muneratIve to its projectors.

FoKT SMITH, Ark, April s.-Pstrick McCarty was hanged here today for the murder of Thomas and John MahOney in the Cherokee NatIol ou the 18th day of February, lSS6.
